I love the five stone setting that Hawaiianorangetree designed with Brian Gavin. I'm considering the same setting for a graduated five stone only my stones would be much smaller. Given my stones (below) do you think this setting would overpower my stones and I'd be better off with something like the BG five stone trellis II band?

Here is a link to the setting I'm talking about about - [URL='https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/5-stone-graduated-trellis-from-bgd.170896/']https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/5-stone-graduated-trellis-from-bgd.170896/[/URL]

My stones would be more like -
5.69mm x 4.3 or 4.5mm x 3.8 or 4.0mm
.65 x .35 x .20

I've gone back and forth on many different settings including their u-prong which I recently ordered and canceled. I'm 100% sure I want a graduated ring in one of these settings but I can't decide which one would work best.

I'd appreciate any advice or opinions because I don't want to make a mistake. The first setting is considered custom and would be final sale.
 
What is your finger size? I don't think the setting would overwhelm the stones; remember that most of the setting is sitting below the stones and would be seen mainly by you! The main question to me is how the combination would look on your hand. I have a 3-stone bezeled ring. The "face-up" part including bezels measures about 24 mm, which is about what the diamond array on your ring would measure. I might be a bit biased, but think my ring looks great on my size 6.25 finger! ;)) The height of the setting adds to the perceived coverage: the girdles of my diamonds sit about 5 mm above my hand.

~ 24 mm of diamonds (with a bit of platinum thrown in) on a size 6.25 finger:

I wear a size 4.45/5. I think my main concern is whether or not the six prongs on the center stone would be too much.
